BACKGROUND AUTO-SAVE, Auto-save should not interrupt your workflow

please do this

Well, here I am, it’s 2025 ... new computer, fresh install of the tippy-esy toppy-est After Effects, annnnnnnd I’m still waiting for Auto Saves. How has Adobe not addressed this yet

Making a coffee and bumping this while I wait for Auto-Save to let me get back to work :). Thankfully the app will pull focu when its

Back again to bump this  while waiting for the Autosave dialogue to finish...

This interrupts me on the daily as well. +1 for a modernized background save.

Agreed. Not sure why they even bothered adding 3D in. Seems like a waste of resources. 

A little experiment for the After Effects Team, just in case they are actually reading any of this and might deign to respond. Go to the After Effects Community forum, click on the little button that says "Ideas" and then sort the list by top votes. You'll see this requests close to the top with 516 votes with zero affirmation from the team while importing 3D objects had about 100 votes and is now inexplicably complete? Soooo, how about you actually address the direct top-voted needs of your users????

Still nothing in 2024, not even an acknowledgment from the team after this was top voted for years on the previous board, and now sits silently on here. Premiere managed to fix this, why can't you?

Seriously, Adobe. How about you bother acknowledging this years long request? Can you at least mark it considered? Why is this one request so impossible for your team?

September 2023, and I still have to chose between being interrupted every couple of minutes, and struggling to get into the zone because AE could crash any minute for no apparent reason and I having to redo 20 minutes worth of animation work. lol

Seriously, guys: Ps, Ai and others are able to "recover" files after a crash for years now, which means the highly futuristic technology called "background auto save" seems to already exist in some way. Even in Adobe-land, so stop acting like this request was the cold fusion of software development.
